[MR] Women and the Early Church

[Susan and Frank Downs]

If "history is a science," then you need to give precise, scientific
definitions for "heresies," "authentic Catholic teaching," and "correct,
orthodox teaching."  Frankly, these do not sound like the words of a
researcher who is "examining the evidence clearly and objectively," but
rather display a fairly obvious bias.  I have nothing against people being
biased about religious issues, I know I am myself, but if you claim to be
objectively practicing science, you can't use words like heresy, authentic,
correct and orthodox.  These are words which connote distinct value
judgements.
